this movie may not have butchering, murdering, scary jump out at you scenes but is the scariest movie i have ever scene. as an adult i still do not watch it. i can not believe this movie is rated allowable for teens. it should be no kids. because of this rating for this movie, i do not trust this website and will not use it again to monitor what my kids are exposed to.
It was so scareless I could not bear it. It was just horrible, and no better than modern films like "Saw." I have seen worse, but not by a huge amount.
Words can't describe this film . . . nearly 35 years later, it's power to terrify remains. Parents beware . . . this is NOT for children . . . and I've said this before about other films I've reviewed. If any film in the last 40 years of the ratings system has demonstrated the need for an adults only classification for something other than porn, this is it. It's a powerful work . . . but not for kids.
Great movie but very scary for most kids under 16. I don't really know because I was 16 when I saw and I felt just like the main character, like I was possessed. So as one could see, I was scared to hell during this movie.
This is an evil Movie. It was so scary that when my moms 35 year old uncle (35 at the time of the 1970's) got scared DO NOT WATCH THIS MOVIE! youl regret it!
WHAT?!? Thinking this movie is okay for 15 year olds (iffy is not strong enough) is ridiculous. This movie is just not okay. It's scary and not the kind of movie to encourage kids to watch. If an older teen, say 17 or up watches it, then let them deal with it on their own. I saw this when I was 7, and I had nightmares about it through high school. Do not let your young teens watch this movie.
This movie is fairly cheesy for today's standards. It reminded me of a Sci-fi channel movie I saw. I laughed throughout most of it, the girl just made me laugh while she tried to be possessed. I guess demons don't freak me out, the pea soup thing cracked me up.
i think this is a great movie, for my toddler. he watches it with breakfast, and he is laughing so hard he cries. especially when she turns her head all the way around! Bring your toddler to the movie and have no bad dreams!!! Guaranteed!!! he also says the demon girl is his new role-model. or at least i think he did. it was hard to tell with all the screaming. he loved it.

I just had to laugh at this. Isn't the point of a scary movie gee-I-dunno TO SCARE YOU!? If you don't want to be frightened, don't watch horror movies.
Very disturbing, but an amazing crafted horror film guaranteed to scare just about anyone. I give this movie 5 stars and recommend it for all horror lovers 14+.
